@GraemeE yes, oh yes.

I must’ve watched this video at least a hundred times. I have limitless space for tasteful telecasting.

Could listen to this fella noodle all day. Jim Thomas and The Mermen

I love it when I stumble across something and get that why-didn’t-I-know-about-this-before feeling. Hoping to pass it on!

@popvulture one of the only redeeming acts of the villainous charlatans was that infamous VW commercial which led to me discovering the music of Nick Drake......

[popvulture]

@GraemeE I remember that ad! I think it sold more copies of Pink Moon than VWs.

[popvulture]

My version of that is the Gap ad that got me into Bill Withers:

I discovered Pink Moon from Nick Drake with the version of No-Man…

If you can access BBC Sounds this is an absolute treat.
"Live at the BBC Proms: BBC Symphony Orchestra, guest artists and conductor Jules Buckley honour Nick Drake in arrangements including Northern Sky, River Man, and Time Has Told Me"

New King Gizzard makes me a happy boy.

Listened 3x already, love the concept and general feeling of it all. Very accessible too, and probably the first of their records I might be able to get my dad into

Opening track really sets the scene...

Was going to share this before but I was reminded by the current discussion on @endo’s thread - this always makes me think of @Mizmazzle and @Oaktavia (although both currently have less hair than normal ). Keeping doing what you do guys!

[Mizmazzle]

@ARNC damn man…that literally moved me to the point of eyes welling up. What a beautiful song. Beyond grateful that you shared that. I’d never heard that before.

[ARNC]

@Mizmazzle you’re welcome! This guy’s very prolific and well known in the UK ((although not exactly mainstream). I’m not sure if he’s known elsewhere.

[Mizmazzle]

@ARNC so I just shared that song with my whole school in an email. Told them my Denim Club buddy shared it with me and wanted to pass on the “feel goods” That’s going to resonate with a lot of people man!! Can’t thank you enough.

[endo]

that's the guy we're going to see, isn't it? @ARNC

[ARNC]

@Mizmazzle that’s so cool - hope it has the desired effect!

[ARNC]

@endo that’s right - just doing my homework

[endo]

great, so much looking forward to seeing you then

[ARNC]

@endo same (seeing you, obviously - I see enough of me already).

[Mizmazzle]

@Mickey-GT is also an educator. Bet he’d dig this song too.

Sturgill Simpson/Johnny Blue Skies - Live in San Francisco yesterday - fabulous!
